A typical Druxian response. With all due respect, I don't think the life of Mr. Fosse and Ms. Verdon needs dramatic license that's insulting to its characters, just to create drama where there wasn't any. I don't think it's dramatic license to get silly details totally wrong - details that a five-year-old could Google and find out - I don't know, call me crazy, but God is in the details and when the details are made up I'm done.
I have no problem with anyone who loves this show and I understand why they do, although the ratings are horrible and I don't think anyone other than theater fans are watching and it is obviously appealing to many of them. I'm not the only one who feels as I do, BTW. Ms. Williams is great, Mr. Rockwell is not - and some of that is the writing. Bob Fosse had personality - he wasn't a drudge - why would any woman be interested in what's being portrayed in this show? Watch any interview with Bob Fosse, the actual person and you will find a completely charming, impish, boyish, fun, seductive person. Where's that guy in this show?
